- Description
- The ICA file type, associated with IOCA (Image Object Content Architecture), is a graphic file format primarily used for storing image data in a structured manner. It was developed by IBM to facilitate the exchange and processing of complex image documents among different systems and applications. IOCA supports various image types, including bitonal, grayscale, and color images, making it versatile for different imaging needs. It is commonly used in document management and imaging applications, particularly in industries that handle large volumes of scanned documents, such as banking, insurance, and healthcare.
- Image file saved by the Krita painting program. A Krita file is a zip archive holding the full layer stack: each layer's pixel data as compressed tiles, its name, position, opacity, blending mode and visibility, plus a merged preview of the whole image.
